Its been over a year now, I have had two trips to the doctors over it. My breasts just hurt. I'm not sure how to describe it, it isn't a constant thing eg. when walking. I only notice if hug someone or pressure is put on them some how. Sometimes they are a little more tender than other times, I don't really do anything to aggravate it, I tell me BF to be careful when handling them but surely the discomfot shouldn't be going on this long? It's just like a tenderness really, they have increased in size recently, I'm not sure if that is it, but it has been over a year now.
My BF said he once heard of a second puberty that you can get in your early 20s could it be this? Is it a myth?
The doc just said it was probably just me, I am quite a delicate thing! Just irritating that I have to live with it! I'm not sure really what can be done about it...just wondered if anyone had any ideas/similar experiences really!

Thanks :-)

She was on a high dose but I...

Hiya, I feel so sorry for you. it's horrible having that niggling pain going on for what seems like forever.
I had it in my early 20s.. also had a second growth spurt! I went from having a decent size chest to comedy boobs - they're not that bad really :p but the discomfort did go away.
I too wear t-shirt bras (mostly) they seem to feel a little softer around the breast area. But now matter how much I pay for them or how well fitted they are, the shoulder dips are there - which ache from time to time.

I really hope you find an answer soon and definitely get checked in terms of fitting.
